About Éboueurs
This series follows the hectic and often unpredictable daily life of Quebec’s trash collectors. From dawn to dusk, these heroes of the trash world criss-cross the streets of the city to pick up as much as 25 tons of trash a day. These people often work in hard conditions and under extreme weather. They work non-stop, despite the numerous aches and injuries, to keep up with the schedule. ÉBOUEURS reveals the many aspects of this often undervalued but essential profession, and tells the stories of those who often work in the shadows.
